At BCEC, the InvoTech Uniform System integrates Portable Handheld RFID Readers with InvoTech Mobile Software for flexibility on where uniforms can be processed. The RFID technology allows for multiple uniforms to be processed simultaneously and automatically, and the recordkeeping is also automated. The InvoTech Uniform System provides significant cost saving benefits by cutting labor costs, eliminating losses, reducing purchases and lowering laundry expenses. The system eliminates traditional labor-intensive tasks, such as manual sorting, counting and recordkeeping to reduce operational costs.

“The implementation of InvoTech has provided significant efficiencies in the operation of the Uniform Room from a staffing and process perspective. The availability of comprehensive reporting has also been extremely useful in tracking uniform assets and planning for future requirements.” said Andrew McDonald, IT Manager BCEC.

The InvoTech UHF-RFID Uniform System will track and provide automated reports on uniforms for approximately 900 team members. InvoTech communicates with the delivery system to simplify and automate each property’s operation by tracking when staff members retrieve their uniform with their employee ID card. The efficient process means the convention center uniform accounting is accurate without the added expense of manual processes and recordkeeping.

“The Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centrecan ensure that its uniform assets and PAR levels are properly assigned to each employee and that the entire uniform inventory is tracked daily and from day one. Laundry expenses and washing cycles are automatically recorded by the system. The InvoTech Uniform System provides many benefits to businesses around the world, including Convention Centers” said Oswald Lares, Director of Sales at InvoTech Systems, Inc.
